Investigation Summary
At approximately 10:30 p.m. on November 18, 1994, Employee #1, of Delta Star, Inc., was helping a press brake operator set up the machine before a production run. As the operator reached around the end of the machine to adjust the controls, he also pressed the machine's foot pedal to move the slide down. At the same time, Employee #1 reached his hand through the point of operation to reposition what he thought was a displaced backstop. His left index finger was amputated.
